Reconfigurable Switched-Capacitor Power Converters

Abstract

Switched-capacitor (SC) DC–DC converters are a class of power converters that are used to convert one voltage level to another, through the use of switches and capacitors. They consist of two parts, a power stage, which is also known as a charge pump, and a feedback/feed-forward controller that regulates the output to the desired voltage value.
